Making a city more energy efficient by improving building
owners’ awareness of energy performance
 
 
BENCHMARKING
 
is tracking energy use of
our buildings and helping building owners
access information to improve, compare, and
track the energy use of their buildings over
time. ENERGY STAR scores rank energy
performance of buildings nationwide
 
TRANSPARENCY
 
is reporting that
benchmarking information to the city, which is
